| 1. | The postganglionic parasympathetic fibers leave the pterygopalatine ganglion in several directions.
|
| 2. | The ciliary ganglion is a " parasympathetic " ganglion.
|
| 3. | The ventricles are more richly innervated by sympathetic fibers than parasympathetic fibers.
|
| 4. | Some typical actions of the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems are listed below.
|
| 5. | As a result, the postsynaptic parasympathetic nerve fibers are very short.
|
| 6. | The glossopharyngeal nerve has parasympathetic fibers that innervate the parotid salivary gland.
|
| 7. | It also supplies preganglionic parasympathetic fibers to several head and neck ganglia.
|
| 8. | Parasympathetic innervation serves to increase the flow of saliva from these glands.
|
| 9. | Digoxin also has important parasympathetic effects, particularly on the atrioventricular node.
|
| 10. | This parasympathetic activity is further increased during conditions of elevated blood pressure.
